produces green text, not underline text as stated in the standard.
If I put the same in c code, it works
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
fputs("\033[4masdfasdf",stdout);
return 0;
}
I get underlined text.
I ran the C example in an xterm on Ubuntu! The question remains. Why does this produce color rather than underlined text?The standard says ESC[32m should produce green text and ESC[4m should produce underlined text.
